University of Virginia, on May 6th, in the President's Office, The undersigned respectfully reports that pursuant to the
resolution of the Visitors at the June meeting, 1909, providing
for the transfer to the Alumni Board of Trustees of the University
of Virginia Endowment Fund, as in said resolution set
forth, on March 30, 1910, after having had a previous meeting
with Mr. Eppa Hunton, Jr., the Treasurer of said Alumni Board
of Trustees in Richmond, in order to arrange the various details
for the proper transfer of those of said securities which
were registered, the undersigned receipted to the Virginia Trust
Company for the following named and described bonds, and turned
the same over to said Hunton as Treasurer of said Alumni Board
of Trustees of the University of Virginia Endowment Fund taking
his receipts therefor in the words and figures following: viz.- Received of the Rector and Visitors of the University of
Virginia through the Honorable Armistead C. Gordon, Rector,
the bond with all unmatured coupons thereto attached. Received of the Rector and Visitors of the University of
Virginia, through the Honorable Armistead C. Gordon, Rector
all of the above listed securities with all of the unmatured
coupons thereto attached. The Executive Committee of the local chapter of Phi Beta
Kappa requests that, unless you yourself see some reason for
not doing so, you will submit to the Board of Visitors, their
request that the Chapter be granted the use of one of the rooms
of the University, and would suggest as suitable for the purpose,
the unoccupied room on East Range in the building in which
Dr. B. W. Green now resides. We desire this room to keep in it
the records, library, photographs, and other property of the
Chapter, and for the use of the officers of the Chapter in the
discharge of their duties. I enclose herewith a formal contract prepared by Messrs.
Moon and Fife, relative to the removal of the track, &c., by
the Street Car Company. It has been executed by the Company,
and I have signed it as Chairman of the Executive Committee.
When this Company began the work, I was under the impression
that the Committee, composed of yourself, Dr. Lambeth, and
myself, had power to act in the matter; but it seems that the
power was vested in you gentlemen and the Executive Committee.
I will be glad if you will have this paper properly executed
at the meeting of the Board called for Saturday. I regret to
say it will be impossible for me to attend the meeting, as I
shall be out of town. On the 10th day of April 1908, the Board of Visitors of
the University of Virginia adopted a resolution that the petition
of the Charlottesville and Albemarle Railway Company
for change of the location of its line be referred to you
gentlemen with authority to act. I enclose herewith a paper from Mr. L. T. Hanckel, President
of the Street Railway Company, making application for
permission to change the location and grade of the street-car
track as it passes over the lands of the University. The undersigned respectfully requests your honorable
body to permit it to change the location of its Street Car
Line running through the premises of the University of Virginia.
It is desired to change the location of its railway
line from its present one to a point lying north of the trestle
and south of the light and heating plant of the University
of Virginia,- the new line to be located at such point and
along such curves and grades as will be agreeable to and approved
by your body. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
